Best In South Carolina Real Estate™: Upstate

🏆 #1 of 7 Upstate SC counties, #1 of 10 SC counties — ALEX Intelligence 2026 The Upstate’s migration isn’t coming from within South Carolina. Just 12.9% of new households arrive from the top three sending counties — and two of them are in North Carolina. This isn’t local growth. It’s strategic relocation. The data shows the Upstate is a regional magnet, not a homegrown success. Its future is tied to the economic health of Charlotte, Charleston, and Columbia — not its own policies.
